Respuesta :

Answer:

b)cash inflow in the final year of the project

Explanation:

After tax salvage value is considered a terminal cashflow; meaning, it is received at the end of the project. When a company decides to sell fixed assets like machinery or buildings that were used in a project, they will receive the cash, pay tax and keep the rest of the money. This net amount is included in calculation of NPV of the project by finding its present value.
